Joseph, You are using :local: - this is only for internal developers of CVS/CVSNT to use - never use it for project work. In addition you are usint :local: to access a network drive which as you know is unsupported. Instead set up a proper cvsnt (or the older cvs) server so you can use :pserver:hostname:/repo or :ssh:hostname:/repo or :ext:hostname:/repo intead. This is easy to do and only should take a few minutes, then your linux and windows work will be a lot safer and more reliably versioned. This page is a little out of date but gives you the gist - ask here on the newsgroup if you get stuck setting up a server: http://www.cvsnt.org/wiki/InstallationLinux Regards, Arthur Barrett > -----Original Message----- > From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org > [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org] On Behalf Of Joseph Koenig > Sent: 21 June 2007 07:37 > To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org > Subject: [cvsnt] cvs [diff aborted]: Local access to network > share not supported (use -N to override this error) > > > I have searched the archives and realize that this is > preceived to be dangerous.
